Descending
to a cavernous
ballroom
where
an infusion of spicy
salsa and gumbo
meet
in a blending of
Afro Caribbean music
pushed to the max
subdivided beats
bursting with activity
a piano
demanding
and
forming the foundation
for crisp
percussive attacks
cherry colored sticks
on timbales
calloused hands
slapping dead animal skin
on conga drums
to enhance
the
sizzling sound of brass
and the raspy orgasm
of a saxophone
while an acoustic bass
rumbles
double timing freely
energized hips swirl
tits
big as melons
swaying
from side to side
shamelessly
and
animated shadow
dance
across cream colored
walls
